At some point in the scan, your computer might look like it has frozen, but just leave it alone, it is an intensive scan.<br /><br />When it finishes, and you click to remove all malware, it'll ask to restart your computer. Do it. You might want to run a full scan again, later, just to make sure it got everything. Those viruses love to make copies of themselves.<br /><br />http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html?part=dl-10804572&subj=dl&tag=button<br /><br />http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/rkillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-37650596334135065512011-11-16T16:08:57.106-06:002011-11-16T16:08:57.106-06:00With Ubuntu and Mac you won't need to worry ab...With Ubuntu and Mac you won't need to worry about all the 3rd party software you need to buy/find for free, and learn to use, to run a "safe" Windows system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-5600524397598210112011-11-16T15:41:59.234-06:002011-11-16T15:41:59.234-06:00I would recommend using a good firewall like IPCOP...I would recommend using a good firewall like IPCOP, ClearOS or something similar.

When I did a Google search it would redirect about 3 out of every 4 times. When I used the Norton toolbar with Norton search, it worked fine.<br /><br />Note that the redirect happens only after you get the search results and click on one of the results. A way around this is to copy and paste the URL rather than click on the search result. <br /><br />I tried everything, reloading firefox, and even had Norton take over my computer to try and find what was happening with no luck. Eventually, after weeks, the problem went away, but I do not know why.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-84253435087711804582011-11-16T15:23:01.241-06:002011-11-16T15:23:01.241-06:00another +1 for MalwareBytes.
